Definitions
- This invention pertains to a method for forming highly effective films to be used for field electron emitters which could be applied for manufacturing of flat panel displays, electron microscopes, microwave electronics and a number of other applications.
- the base of using of the diamond as cold emitters is a negative affinity of diamond [F.J.Himsel et al. Phys. Rev. B, 20(2) 624, 1979]. All the existing attempts to produce a highly effective electron emitter from polycrystalline diamond films are not to be considered as positive ones, in particular due to the very low emission sites density. Emission sites density of such films was not higher than 10 3 per CM 2 , but for obtaining of the full color display it is necessary to reach 10 5 .
- the technical goal is invention of a method for producing films with a highly effective emission properties to be used for cathode manufacturing for the full color displays, exactly to produce nano crystalline diamond films with highly effective emission characteristics.
- the CVD method comprising a heating the metal filaments and substrates under the hydrogen flow, introducing a carbon containing gas into the flow and deposition.
- diamond film on the substrate in hydrogen - carbon containing gas mixture evacuating surplus of graphite phase; deposition is going on the substrate heated up to 650-900C through the protective grid screen located between the filament heated up to 1800-2800C and the substrate, under carbon containing gas concentration in gas flow 2-10%; the methane under concentration 2-8% could be used as carbon containing gas in gas flow, and in the case of the silicon substrate before deposition the natural oxide should be removed in hydrogen flow under the filament and the substrate temperatures needed for deposition, the silicon carbide layer should be created on the substrate by introducing in gas flow 5-20% methane during 4-20 minutes, after this the methane concentration should be decreased up to 2-8%, after this there should be a deposition process and evacuating surplus of graphite phase.
- This method can produce diamond films both on conductive and insulating substrates, in particular on the silicon substrate which is a good conductor under the used temperature range.
- the main role of the protective grid screen is to change the relation between concentrations of chemical radicals near surface of the substrate due to effective recombination on the grid walls some of radicals (especially hydrogen atoms).
- the protective grid which is being placed between the substrate and filaments, is made of a materials resistant to high temperature (up to 1500C) and resistant to sputtering.
- the area of the plate having holes will normally correspond to about the area of the film to be grown on the substrate. Distance between holes and the diameter of the holes should be properly chosen in order to obtain the maximum grid transparence.. If the diameter of holes is less than 0.1 mm the transparency of the grid decreases, if the holes diameter is more than 5 mm in a grid 1 to 2 mm thick, the effect of the grid on chemical radical concentration near the substrate surface begins to decrease The minimal thickness of the grid is limited only mechanical resistance of the grid. The increasing of the thickness resulted in enhancement of grid role on the chemical components what gives decreasing of the film growth rate.
- the distance between the grid and the substrate is not limited on a low end so the grid could be placed just on the substrate (in this case a diamond film would have a grid patterning). Maximal distance is limited by the filament temperature which could be higher 2000C.
- the metal filament is heated up to the temperature range 1800-2800C. Under the temperatures lower than 1800C all the chemical processes have a too low rate, under the temperatures higher than 2800C there is a fast carbide transformation of the filament resulted in a filament breaking.
- the filaments should be made of a materials resistant to high temperature (up to 2800C), chemically resistant and resistant to the sputtering. Generally it could be tungsten or tantalum or renium wire which length should be practically selected.
- the increasing of the filament thickness resulted in increasing of chemical filament activation, however it should be noted that the thickness value could be limited by used power supply source.
- the surface could be coated either graphite or diamond with a large grain structure which have a bad emission properties.
- FIG.1 shows a sketch of a gas phase (CVD) reactor suitable for the method of this invention and Fig.2. showing a scanning electron microscope image of a diamond film grown by the method of this invention.
- CVD gas phase
- Deposition system comprises reactor tube (1), preferably made from quartz, closed and sealed by flanges (2) and (3). Flanges (3) additionally to the water cooling have isolated current plugs in (4) for an electrical power supply from the sources (5) and (6) to the hot filament (7) and a substrate heater (8).
- the substrate (9) is placed on the substrate holder (10) and is separated from the metal wire (7) by the protective grid (11) which is placed on a special holder (12). The distance between grid (11) and substrate (8) may be determined by thickness of holder (12).
- Vacuum pump (13) provides vacuum pumping.
- Working gases are supplied through a number of electronic mass-flow controllers (14), buffer mixture volume (15) and gas flow regulator (16).
- the temperature of the filament is controlled by the optical pyrometer (it is not shown on the figure), the substrate temperature is controlled by thermocouple (17), mounted into the substrate holder (10).
- the thermocouple contact is realized by the isolated current plug in which is similar to the (4).
- Vacuum chamber (1) is pumped up to necessary vacuum. After evacuating the chamber the hydrogen gas is injected into the reactor through the mass-flow controller (14) in order to keep needed flow value. After the hydrogen flow rate achieves required value a gas pressure could be hold under the needed value by using controller (16). After this power supplies are switch on to heat substrate heater (8) and filament (7). The substrate and filament temperatures can be regulated by the power supply voltage. After a time needed to allow the substrate and filament to reach the required temperatures, the carbon containing gas (for example methane ) is injected into the reactor through the individual flow meter (14) under selected with the hydrogen proportion. From this moment the deposition process begins.
- the hydrogen containing gas for example methane
- the deposition process should be stopped by interrupting a carbon containing gas flow (for example the methane) and all the steps should be made in reverse order.
- a carbon containing gas flow for example the methane
- the metal filament was made from the tungsten wire with the thickness 0.5mm.
- Example 1 The diamond film deposition process on silicon substrate.
- the substrate temperature under deposition process was in range 680-850C.
- the filament temperature was in the range 2100-2200C.
- the distance between the filament and the grid was 1-6 mm, between the substrate and grid 0.1-2 mm. It should be noted that increasing of the filament-.substrate distance is decreasing a deposition rate very sharp since the chemically active radicals are generated near the filament.
- Process of deposition on silicon substrate comprises the following steps:
- the hydrogen gas is injected into the reactor up to the pressure 1-11 kPa (10-80 Torr).
- the power supplies are switch on to heat the substrate heater and the filament.
- the silicon oxide was removed in the hydrogen during 4-20 minute
- the methane gas is injected into the reactor under the relative concentration 5-20%.
- the silicon carbide layer is formed on the substrate surface. This layer is needed to improve the adhesion of a diamond film to the silicon substrate and to improve electron injection performances from the silicon substrate to the diamond film.
- the methane concentration in the gas mixture is reduced to the range 2%- 8% and the diamond film is grown on the substrate surface with the rate 0.5 microns/hour.
- the methane flow was interrupted and film annealing in the hydrogen was performed during 4-10 minutes for removing of graphite layer from the film surface
- Example 2 The diamond film deposition process on the metal substrate.
- the process has a certain difference in comparison with the deposition process on the silicon substrate. It is due the different chemical activity of the metal and the silicon.
- the processes of chamber pumping, gas injection and filament heating are the similar to the Example 1. However the stage of the oxide removal is not needed. Following stage is the methane injection (2-5%) into the gas flow and the diamond film is growing with the rate 0.2-0.5 microns/hour. Since the such metal as molybdenum, tungsten, tantalum have a high rate of carbides formation the special stage for carbide layer formation could be omitted. After the film was grown up to the necessary thickness (usually 1 micron) the methane flow was interrupted and followed by film annealing in the hydrogen for removal of graphite layer from the film surface.
- a thin nano crystalline diamond film was grown on the substrate.
- Fig.2 a scanning electron microscope image of the surface texture is shown of a sample of thin nano crystalline diamond film deposited by the method of this invention. The same fact was confirmed by the scanning tunneling microscopy. X-ray diffractometry showed that a typical value of the grain size is about 10-50 nm. Graphs of electrical current vs. electrical field strength showed that the "turn-on" emission voltage is very low - a few V/micron. It was reached the emission current density 100 mA/cm 2 , emission sites density 10 5 per cm 2 The characteristics of diamond films deposited on the metal substrates are similar to the ones for the diamond films deposited on the silicon substrates.
- the films produced by the above described way could be applied as cold cathode emitters in flat panel displays. These films could be used in cathode luminescent light sources for projectors, jumbotron pixels where the high brightness is required.
- the diamond cold emitters could be used in vacuum electronic devices.
